Jamieson High Potency Biotin Gummies 100 pack

Active Ingredient:

• Biotin (vitamin B7): Typically 2,500 mcg per gummy (8,333% Daily Value for adults)

Claimed Benefits:

• Promotes thicker hair, stronger nails, and healthier skin

Considerations:

• High Dose: 2,500mcg is a high dose of biotin, exceeding the recommended daily intake for most healthy adults (30mcg).
• Limited Evidence: While some studies suggest biotin may improve hair and nail health, the evidence is not conclusive.
• Gummy Form: Be mindful of the sugar content, especially if you have diabetes or other health concerns where sugar intake is a concern.

Recommendations:

• Suitable for Adults: Biotin gummies are generally safe for adults, but it's still advisable to consult a doctor before use, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or take other medications.
• Focus on Underlying Causes: Brittle nails and hair loss can have various causes like nutrient deficiencies, medical conditions, or genetics. Consult your doctor to diagnose the underlying cause if you're experiencing these issues.
• Consider Dietary Sources: Biotin is naturally found in a balanced diet rich in eggs, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and some vegetables.
• Potential for Lower Dose: Given the high dose, discuss with your doctor if a lower dose biotin supplement (around 30-100mcg) might be a more suitable option.
• Follow Dosage Instructions: Follow the recommended dosage on the label carefully. Don't exceed the recommended intake without consulting your doctor.

Additional Information:
